October 13, 2017 17:46A ton of packs coming out for L5R to rush the small card pool and give the players more options in a short time. A smart move on FFG or not, it is happening!

Locally, Midgard Gaming will be getting these in as soon as they can to supply to the players in early November. Expect these to move like hot cakes as the players get ready for a more co...

[Deck Focus] Tactics Battering Ram Deck
October 06, 2016 02:47This deck takes Tactics to a different place than we are normally used to. Quest big early while building a force to be reckoned with. Tactics Théoden, under used but can be very potent. With this deck he is giving himself 3 Willpower and Éowyn a whopping 5! With a 8 willpower door basher, it certainly seems reasonable seeing how your starting threat will be a mere 27 in round one. Don't forget, if your friends are also playing tactics, they get the willpower boost. Big Bonus! A mono deck ...

Lord of the Rings Hero Focus - Elfhelm
July 15, 2016 06:17So I am taking a quick break from my Pokemon Go! game play to write an article as I am really enjoying the newest AP of this cycle. Elfhelm was first released as a Spirit ally in "The Dead Marshes" pack way way back in the first cycle. Only now he is a hero card and it seems there is a bit of mystery surrounding his card. First off his mere card image was to find up until recently and How useful could this mount riding Rohan be ? Let's see if we can analyse this even more! Looking at his ...
Treebeard Loves Elves
July 02, 2016 19:49Adding more on the last article I wanted to talk about a deck idea I came up with. While nothing here will shock you there are some interesting synergies with the Hero Treebeard and the tree people, Silvans. Starting with the Heroes, Treebeard a Lore hero with high stats and the ability to boost his Questing and Attack anytime you want to put damage upon him. Of course with his high stats this makes him a good defender and if you can ready him, a powerful attacker. This deck gets to use all ...
Lord of the Rings Hero Focus - Treebeard
June 17, 2016 09:08While not a new hero I have only come to discover the possibilities for this great hero. Some people still rather the ally for Ent decks but this particular Ent could have a deck of his own making. This hero has heft stats and a large threat cost. So in general you might not want to add a bunch more threat to the pool without some answers but with the ability to add +5 to Willpower and Attack, a good defense and a nice hit point value this hero covers it all. Decks designed to heal would b...
